PRIVACY POLICY

Privacy Policy

Site: simplecodetools.blogspot.com
Effective date: September 25, 2025

Overview

This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected when you visit this site (the “Site”), how it is used, and your choices. The Site is hosted on Google’s Blogger/Blogspot platform and may include third-party embeds (e.g., GitHub/Gists) and links to external resources. This policy applies only to this Site and not to any third-party websites or services.

What We Collect

  • Minimal direct collection by us. We do not intentionally collect names, addresses, or similar personal details unless you voluntarily send us an email.
  • Automatic platform data (by Google/Blogger). When you visit, Google may automatically collect standard log information (IP address, browser type, device/OS, referring/exit pages, timestamps) and place cookies or similar technologies for security, performance, and features. See Google’s Privacy Policy.
  • Embeds & third parties. Viewing embedded content (e.g., GitHub Gists) or following outbound links may allow those providers to collect usage data under their own policies.

Cookies & Similar Technologies

Google’s Blogger may set cookies to enable core functionality (e.g., page rendering, fraud prevention) and to provide aggregate analytics. Third-party embeds may also set their own cookies. You can usually control cookies in your browser settings. For details on Google’s cookies, see Google Cookie Policy.

How We Use Information

  • To operate and maintain the Site (security, performance, troubleshooting).
  • To understand aggregate usage trends (e.g., page views, device types) via Blogger/Google aggregate stats.
  • To respond if you contact us directly (e.g., email support/feedback).

What We Don’t Do

  • We do not sell your personal information.
  • We do not knowingly profile individual visitors.
  • We do not host account logins or process payments on this Site.

Advertising & Analytics

Current status: This Site does not run third-party ad networks or additional analytics beyond Blogger’s built-in aggregate stats. If we later enable advertising (e.g., Google AdSense) or third-party analytics, we will update this Policy and, where required, provide appropriate consent controls.

Third-Party Links & Embeds

The Site frequently links to external resources (e.g., GitHub repositories/Gists, vendor documentation). Those services are governed by their own privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party practices. Review their policies before using their services.

Data Retention

  • Emails you send to us are retained as long as necessary to respond and maintain records, then deleted when no longer needed.
  • Platform-level logs and aggregate statistics are managed by Google/Blogger per their policies.

Your Choices

  • Control cookies via your browser settings and, where available, Google’s privacy controls.
  • Limit data sharing by not interacting with third-party embeds or by visiting linked content directly with tracker-blocking tools.
  • Contact us to request deletion of emails you have sent to us.

Data Rights (GDPR/CPRA and similar)

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain personal data. For Site data we control (e.g., emails you sent), contact us to exercise these rights. For platform data collected by Google/Blogger, please refer to Google’s privacy tools and policies.

Children’s Privacy

This Site is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have such information, contact us so we can delete it.

Security

We rely on Google’s infrastructure for hosting and transport security (HTTPS). No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure; use caution when running scripts or downloading files from any source.

International Visitors

By using the Site, you acknowledge that your information may be processed and stored in countries where Google or third-party providers operate.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Effective date” reflects the latest version. Your continued use of the Site after changes means you accept the updated Policy.

Contact

For privacy questions or requests related to information you directly provide to us (e.g., email), contact: you@example.com. For platform data and cookies handled by Blogger/Google, consult Google’s Privacy Policy and related help pages.
